How did I forget about Obita 😅 this is what happens when there isn’t a game every week !Quote:

Levitt is far from being a weak option; he played a crucial role in the unbeaten run the club had in securing third place.Quote:

I’m hoping he stays, builds on that spell of form and gives David Gray some big decisions to make.
Don't get the Miller leaving chat at all. Under contract, international, young, athletic and improving. What's not to like?
To be fair he mentioned weaker and not weak?Quote:

he and his missus had twins did they not… that’s a tough shift on top of training and playing. My mate emerged shell shocked about 5 years later :) we often overlook the human side of players…Quote:

No, had a few messages to say we’re going to invest a lot into a striker but no names quotes at all, so far.Quote:

I agree he was much better im not having a go at him i just think it may well be an area of improvement. Bigger stronger faster seems to be the modern wayQuote:

Campbell helps with our Euro quota and is a very good squad player.

I don't think the club will be looking to off load either Levitt or Campbell so if they go I think it will be because they request to leave, which I don't see happening
One of the issues we had earlier in the season, apart from the mistakes causing us to ship goals. Our midfield was too similar; there wasn't a player there who could keep possession, spread the ball and pick a pass, the same way that Levitt does. The team was crying out for a player like him.Quote:

I agree. He finished the season as easily one of our best players.Quote:

It's just the usual pish from a folk who 99% of have never been to a Scottish football match and only ever watch the uglies play each other on the telly. The truth is they know less than nothing about Scottish football and just parrot the pish they have been conditioned to believe. I remember that friendly, there was about 10 of them sitting in the Loch Inn all wearing Sunderland tops, and when I joked to them that they looked like an explosion in a toothpaste factory it didn't even get a smile from any of them ........... nae sense o' bloody humour these mackems. Maybe that's where the nickname comes from, ye cannae mackem laugh :greengrinQuote:

Levitt has played his best football with Fuchs protecting him at Dundee United and Triantis at Hibs.
He isn't the same player when he has another midfielder who wants to direct play beside him.
